November 10, 2012

Yesterday Diana Peters of Death Row Dog Rescue again was asking for a donation, even just $5, (again) because it just takes so much money . She forgets to tell people just how her donations that are collected are spent ....

Here is the TRUTH where she spends funds collected, to support herself.

(see the last sentence)

Which she has admitted to on many occasions. You may assume then she takes a paycheck, but according to her application sent to the Florida Dept. of Agriculture no one takes a paycheck. Ethical, legally operating non-profits just DO NOT take the funds and spend with no accounting for them. The fact Diana Peters lives off of donations - the business is not paying anyone payroll is FRAUDULENT! If only the kind caring donors knew where their donations go to. (and to boot she doesn't pay taxes like the rest of us on her income)

Here is a screenshot from the DRDR facebook page taken this morning. Please read through the comments made about The Humane Society. Great suggestion made,

I am not understanding why Diana would say the Humane Society sends dogs to BCAC (Broward County Animal Care) ? From their website :Is the Humane Society of Broward County a "no-kill" shelter?The Humane Society of Broward County is an open admission shelter. This means we accept all owned animals regardless of their condition. Animals must be friendly and healthy to go up for adoption. Those not meeting this criteria are euthanized. Many "no-kill" shelters will only take in pets they know they can find homes for or turn people away when they are full. So where is the pet to go then?

Do I have to make an appointment to drop off my pet?No, the shelter is open seven days a week and the receiving department opens at 8:00 AM everyday.

Is there a time limit for animals?Once an animal is evaluated and goes up for adoption, there is not a time limit, as long as the pet stays friendly and healthy.
No where does the Humane Society say they send animals to BCAC ,and no where does it say they are selective and refuse animals.Frankly, what Diana Peters is doing is, spreading libel against them.

Now Diana has her followers believing that the workers LIE. They do not lie. When they take in an animal that may NOT be adoptable and may face euthanasia THEY are very clear. People sign paperwork, it is not a dirty dark secret!My pet is old and I can't afford to take it to the vet to have it put to sleep (euthanized). Can I bring my pet to the shelter?Yes, the Humane Society of Broward County does this as free service, we do however ask for a donation. If you would like the pet's remains returned, there is a set fee for the cremation process and this is based on the size of the pet. We are open seven days a week for your convenience and receiving opens at 8:00 AM everyday. Please go to the west side of the building to the receiving department and the associate there will be able to assist you

The Humane Society of Broward County is a 501c3 non profit animal shelter. They are not supported by government funds. They take in unwanted animals . Isn't this what Diana claims to do on a much smaller scale?

I urge people who think Diana Peters is just avoiding The Humane Society as someone to take in animals from to contact them directly. I have been told that they know all about Diana Peters.

Back in September Diana posted one of their dogs Jezebel on her DRDR facebook page and asked for donations so she could SAVE Jezebel.

(see the screenshots below, and carefully READ Diana's comments)

Apparently Diana doesn't even KNOW where the dogs was because she tells people to call Broward County. The Broward Humane Society is NOT a government agency. She wrote the dog is at the Broward Pound. UNTRUE, Jezebel was not at BCAC - the pound.

Diana then says she has room for her but no money to get her out. Can someone sponsor to pay to get her out.

She then goes on to LIE and say how much the pull fee is.

The truth is Diana can't pull a dog from the Humane Society !

their policy is NO rescue can pull dogs from them - they are a shelter. their dogs are adopted by individuals not permitted by groups.She is being quite deceitful to get donations. This is called, Charity Fraud.

After receiving donations, and there were many more posts where she said she was getting the dog, but unfortunately either I have misfiled the screenshots, or I did not have a chance to get them. ( If I find them I will show that proof, but for now that part is just hearsay)

She goes on to state the pull fee amount - when it is IMPOSSIBLE to pull a dog from this private shelter. They only adopt. She then goes on to state Jezebel was adopted.Yet- another LIE.look below at the last comment!
Jezebel was still there as she wasn't even yet available to be adopted until September 26th.

Deceit and LIES - sad stories and asking for help to save a dog, which she couldn't save. Nothing new with this scammer.

But that hurts rescue animals that need to be saved, it hurts donors who believe her lies, and it hurts the rescues who are saving dogs, and shelters she spreads libel about.

People deserve The Truth!

Diana did not have to tell lies when someone simply asked her why doesn't she partner with no kill shelters.Diana can't pull a dog from The Humane Society, BCAC, MDAS, and many, many more shelters throughout Florida and beyond.

Here is a great guide that was shared with me, that will help donors discern a good rescue, from a bad. It is vital in our fight to save LIVES that money goes to those that are saving them.

Diana Peters - YOU NEED TO STOP LYING and CHEATING to support yourself.I am TIRED of seeing dog after dog, rescue and shelter after the other being used by you to fatten your wallet and pay for your trips to firewalking events in Texas, Tony Robbins events in Orlando, your food, rent, cigarettes and wine. If you want people to support YOU then simply ask for money for it. Do NOT use dogs!!!

You be the judge! Death Row Dog Rescues operator Diana Peters continues to post claim after claim that she SAVES dogs from MDAS in Miami Florida. It's posted on her website, and facebook page as her mission in life. How can a rescue who can't pull dogs from that shelter continue to state over and over again how hard it is saving them???

How does this person sleep at night knowing she is posting lies and collecting donations based on her lies and heart wrenching stories she posts?

Death Row Dog Rescue is NOT approved to pull dogs! Anyone can contact them and verify this fact.

MDAS Main Shelter7401 NW 74 StreetMiami, FL 33166

Phone:Fax:

305-884-1101305-805-1619

Many people step forward and state it on facebook, but Diana in turn calls them haters, liars, and people who are hurting the dogs? How is someone calling her lies out hurting animals? Why is her rescue collecting donations? My opinion is this not only hurt the donors, who may lose trust in the rescue community when they find out the truth, but it HURTS the DOGS! Any money collected on behalf of a dog in dire need should got to that dog, not anothers pocket.Imagine the LIVES approved rescues could have saved from MDAS with those donations!

Here is just one example posted online from this week:

Posted on Death Row Dog Rescues Facebook Page 10/24/12

A screen shot of the above post from DRDR page and question posted on the Urgent Dogs of Miami's (UDOM) facebook page on 10/24/12 followed by additional screenshots and comments added.

The answer the public deserves is WHY does Diana continue to state her rescue Death Row Dog Rescue (Hollywood, FL) is saving dogs from Miami Dade Animal Services (MDAS) death row lines - when Death Row Dog Rescue can not pull an animals from their facility?

Posting dogs pictures and posting lists of ID numbers stating you need money to save dogs from the murderers at MDAS when you can't rescue these dogs is just wrong!

If you truly want to help them Diana Peters why not share the truth, and direct people to the many places on the internet to find people who are saving them.
